This month we are going to kick it “old school” with the German Volume Training program. GVT was created back in the 1970’s by Rolf Feser, who was the German National Weightlifting Coach at the time. The basis of the workout is to 10 sets of 10 reps.

This was used as an off-season workout to help Olympic Weightlifters gain lean body mass and shed excess bodyfat. It’s been said that weightlifters would often move up an entire weight class after just 12 weeks of following the 10 sets of 10 method of training.

Back in 1996 Charles Poliquin made the German Volume Training a mainstream workout by publishing it in the magazine – Muscle Media 2000. Since then it has been used by thousands of bodybuilders, powerlifters, weightlifters, and athletes across the globe to help gain muscular body weight.

Over the years there have been countless variations of the German Volume Training Program… Some are good, some are bad, and everything in between.

I even posted my own unique variation of the GVT program back in 2012 on the Total Fitness Bodybuilding “Inner Circle” website that used a style of volume ramping progression to the set and rep pattern.

In this workout program we’re going to get back to the basics with the more traditional style of German Volume Training.
